All the members of the working committee of the Indian National Congress, excepting two women, were arrested at Delhi this afternoon in a lightning raid on the house where the committee was meeting. A Government servant was wounded in a Calcutta bomb outrage this morning and died from terrible injuries. The police have secured evidence of the crimes committced by a gang of Bengali terrorists who are in possession of a large number of bombs. “The Congress revolutionary movement cannot be stemmed by concessions or a conference.” This opinion was expressed by the conference of the European Association at Calcutta to-day, when resolutions calling on the Government to take drastic measures to combat the campaign and condemning further delay in the hope of creating a favourable atmosphere for a conference were passed.
